1812851 - Improve UI for inactive tabs

Status: NEW

(Fenix :: Tabs, enhancement)

Description

[Jeff Boek [:boek]]

From github: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/20803.
Original Title: "Inactive tabs" UI should have feature parity with main tab UI: swiping, selecting, etc."

What is the user problem or growth opportunity you want to see solved?

Needing to select multiple tabs from both inactive and main section should be possible, for instance to:

• share mixed types of tabs
• swiping/flicking especially to close any number of mixed type of tabs, alongside multiselect
• bookmark any number of mixed type of tabs

How do you know that this problem exists today? Why is this important?

• Not being able to select these tabs for user actions is lacking in functionality, especially because the user is aware that tabs may disappear automatically if they don't act. Users may want to mass save or mass bookmark for future reference

Who will benefit from it?

Users expecting a consistent user experience who do not appreciatie wasting time manually pressing X everywhere, especially since the "snack bar" is still overlapping with this X button at the bottom of the viewport.
